At the general freight Office Of the Penn

charge said to the reporter: sThe announce
ment Of the names composing the commits
sion was received by both railroads and mer-
chants with marked symptoms of relief from
what has been a state of nervous apprehen-
zion as to the personnel of the commission to
administer the Interstate law It is great
relief to know that the solution of these
problems win be in the hands of men fully
competent to cope with every phase Of rail
road law
President Gable, of the Rock Island rail-
way, says the commission is a good one. 1t
is understood that Judge Cody expressed to
Mr.. Gable the opion that there is nothing IN
the interstate law which prohibits connecting
roads through ths various states from ar
ranging scaling tariffs SO long as there is no
violation Of the clause prohibiting greater
charges for short than long hauls Pool Com
missioner Fink also indorses Judge Cooley,
and says that the trunk line pool viii continue

son why the Western association should not
